Former King Gyanendra Shah expresses concerns over misconceptions about himself and his family



BIRGUNJ: Former King Gyanendra Shah has voiced his concerns and confusion regarding the Royal Palace massacre, indicating that it has led to misconceptions about him and his family.

Speaking at a program organized in Birgunj on Saturday, the former King commented on the tragic incident that occurred on June 1, 2001, stating that it resulted in his self-isolation and planted negative sentiments in the minds of the Nepali people.

He also mentioned that his family had faced a fatal attack.

“The catastrophic incident on June 1, 2001, not only left us physically affected but also created a cloud of misconceptions and negative emotions in the minds of the Nepali people. Our family was also subjected to a fatal attack,” former King Shah said.
